Download or read book The Silent Male Cancer written by K Dunlap and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-05-29 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Silent Male Cancer was constructed out of a personal experience K. S. Dunlap had with a family member who was diagnosed with prostate cancer. His period of denial and an initial misdiagnosis almost cost him his life. With diligence and divine guidance they pursued more information than that supplied by the physicians. In a quest to be proactive toward a more accurate diagnosis, she found limited resources relating to the emotional and spiritual aspects of cancer. This lack of information increased her resolve to provide a tool that would support others through a more appropriate diagnosis and guide them in understanding the possibility of denial. It is her belief that there is a necessity for knowledge that combines both God and ones need for spirituality in the midst of receiving a proper diagnosis, treatment, and healing. This compilation of material will afford you the knowledge you need as you move toward a cure. Dedicated to Astronaut Michael Anderson who traveled the depths of space in search of a cure.

Book excerpt: Cancer and its treatments have far-reaching and long-lasting effects on quality of life, and no more so than in the area of sexuality and sexual functioning. The successful treatment of cancer often leaves survivors with an enhanced appreciation of life and the love they have in their lives. Difficulty expressing love through the most intimate of acts is devastating for many couples after treatment. For those who are not partnered, treatment side effects pose additional challenges in the realm of dating and establishing new relationships when body image is altered. In the 10 years since the first edition of this book was published, oncology care providers have shown an increasing interest in addressing their patients' changes to sexuality. The field has moved from an overwhelming silence to discussions that are much more open. Both survivors and their partners have benefited from this. But so too have oncology care providers who are increasingly providing comprehensive care for their patients, especially in this most sensitive aspect of quality of life. This second edition of the award-winning and practice-changing text includes updated evidence and models that address the assessment and management of cancer-related sexual problems for survivors of all ages with a broad variety of cancers.

Download or read book Globalism and Gendering Cancer written by Miriam O'Kane Mara and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book connects a rhetorical examination of medical and public health policy documents with a humanistic investigation of cultural texts to uncover the link between gendered representations of health and cancer. The author argues that in western biomedical contexts cancer is considered a women’s disease and their bodies are treated as inherently oncogenic or cancer-producing, which leads to biomedical practices that adversely impact their bodily autonomy. She examines how these biases traverse national boundaries by examining the transmission of biomedical cancer practices from the US and international organizations to Kenya. This book is suited to scholars and students working in the fields of Rhetorics of Health and Medicine, Medical Humanities and Gender Studies. It is also of interest to medical professionals and readers interested in globalism and global health.

This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2012 New York Times Book Review Notable Book "Staggering, searing…Ms. Gubar deserves the highest admiration for her bravery and honesty." —New York Times Diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2008, Susan Gubar underwent radical debulking surgery, an attempt to excise the cancer by removing part or all of many organs in the lower abdomen. Her memoir mines the deepest levels of anguish and devotion as she struggles to come to terms with her body’s betrayal and the frightful protocols of contemporary medicine. She finds solace in the abiding love of her husband, children, and friends while she searches for understanding in works of literature, visual art, and the testimonies of others who suffer with various forms of cancer. Ovarian cancer remains an incurable disease for most of those diagnosed, even those lucky enough to find caring and skilled physicians. Memoir of a Debulked Woman is both a polemic against the ineffectual and injurious medical responses to which thousands of women are subjected and a meditation on the gifts of companionship, art, and literature that sustain people in need.
